The Book of Common Prayer with Ritual Song. Accompanying Har-

monies to the Book of Common Prayer with Ritual Song. Edited by Richard Redhead. (Metzler and Co.)—These two beautifully-printed volumes will be a boon to lovers of the service of our Church as cele- brated "in choirs and places where they sing." In the Prayer-book the tones are given and the Psalter is pointed, yet the volume is not un- wieldy. The harmonies are not of course uniform in point of size, but in quarto.
